Padres CEO and Team President Tom Garfinkel spoke with season ticket holders last Friday, less than 48 hours after the Zack Greinke/ Carlos Quentin incident that resulted in Greinke breaking his collarbone. Yahoo Sports obtained audio of Garfinkel’s talk. Garfinkel was of the belief that Greinke was throwing at Quentin intentionally, and explained-away it being a 2-1 game and a 3-2 count by comparing Zack Greinke to Raymond Babbitt.

“Zack Greinke is a different kind of guy. Anybody seen Rain Man? [crowd laughs] He is a very smart guy. He has Social Anxiety Disorder. He doesn’t interact well with his team, he doesn’t interact with his teammates.”

Garfinkel probably recognized that he had crossed some sort of line there. Later in the same talk, he added, “This is my opinion, and I can’t say this publicly. Well, this is public, we are in the Trust Tree here.”

Oops. Hot comments burn CEO. Garfinkel has already sent an apology to Dodgers Team President Stan Kasten and Zack Greinke, according to Yahoo.

“This is my opinion, and I can’t say this publicly. Well, this is public.”

Damn, that could be a Les Miles quote right there.

Garfinkel shouldn’t be allowed to talk in public any more. Leave the humor to the pros. Like us.

One of the guys the NY Post put on its cover is a HS kid that runs track. Way to step it up from the “it was a Saudi!” headline. All the internet detectives need to put down their magnifying glasses, MS Paint, and question marks and leave the actual police work to the police.

I have a huge dilemma. I have a trip planned for Sat. Sun. and Monday to go up to Pulaski and steelhead trout fish which I have done the last 2 years with my best friend. Another friend who I coached in high school baseball and is best friends with Evan Scribner (I coached against him) of the A’s offered him field box tickets so he has 2 extra. I can’t do both and trying to decided which to do. The trip won’t be affected if I go or not as his uncle and cousin also go.

The crowd laughed after he said, “anyone seen Rain Man”? That must have been a fun crowd…

If you already committed to the fishing trip you should absolutely go fishing.

Garfinkel has already sent an apology to Dodgers Team President Stan Kasten and Zack Greinke, according to Yahoo.

Hopefully that’ll be his bridge over troubled water.

In hindsight, he’d have been better off maintaining the sound of silence.

They said its my decision and know its a tough one but not a problem if I go to the game. The trip was set up for Fri, Sat, and Sun but my friend got the dates wrong and its Sat, Sun, and Mon which he told me yesterday.

FISH. Good lord. Baseball will be around for another six months. The steelhead run won’t be.

I would go to the A’s game. It’s almost impossible to find seats and you never know if you will have another opportunity.
